There are two ways to save the position of a measurement tool: profiles and position logs. The one you choose depends on exactly what you are trying to save.

The positions and display characteristics of all measurement tools can be saved to a profile file. These profiles can be loaded anytime to restore the configuration of all measurement tools. In addition, a profile can be specified to be automatically loaded when Meazure is started.

The position of the current measurement tool can be recorded in a position log. This log can be save to a position log file. A position log file differs from a profile file in the following way. A profile file is designed to save a complete snapshot of the Meazure program. That is, all tool positions, appearance settings, calibrations, and all other preferences are saved in a profile file. In contrast, a position log file records the position of the current measurement tool at a point in time and includes only those supporting items necessary to replay the positions.
